Hopefully it was a little more "civilized" than this!

Poor you! You will have to drink your gin with a straw tonight.

Must be all the rage; Nick and I went yesterday.

Nants - yes it was, if not altogether pleasant, quite tolerable.

louciao - interesting you should mention gin with a straw. For my last root canal, which I had in Moncton a year or so ago, Nancy served me a Guiness with straw afterwards. Bless her heart I nearly cried from appreciation. Last evening I settled for a glass of Shiraz and an early bedtime with a book as it was a particularly large and deep filling - ouch!

Em - Yes the dentist asked about your windows and garden :)
